Controversial Ashes celebrations

1 year 6 months ago, TIMES NOW

In a distasteful postscript to their Ashes triumph, some of the England players celebrated by allegedly urinating on the pitch at the Oval in London. After the dressing room party, including uncorking the bubbly, the players moved to the centre of the ground and allegedly urinated on the pitch, which is considered to be sacrosanct for cricketers. Reportedly Stuart Broad, Kevin Pietersen and James Anderson were the players involved in the incident. According to media reports, about five hours after the last Test was stopped due to bad light with England close to victory, the players gathered near the pitch and took turns to relieve themselves on the 22-yard-strip.
